Doctor's answer:

According to your description, it is recommended that you undergo an imaging examination, as this can provide a direct understanding of your fallopian tube condition, laying a foundation for future pregnancy possibilities. If the fallopian tubes develop abnormal conditions again, timely treatment can be administered to prevent potential impacts on future childbirth. Patients should maintain a calm mood and avoid excessive mental stress and emotional burdens. It is also important to pay attention to preventing cold exposure in the lower limbs and abdomen, and avoid consuming cold foods.
